Looks like they had to do something different than Mario Kart 8 and they did. The game looks interesting.

It isn’t interesting enough to buy, but then I figured I might sit this generation out.

If you are going to list job experience, make sure to use active verbs to describe tasks and try to show that you were working beyond the role.

If you get an interview, be able to talk about what is on your resume.

I found the people in Jordan were incredibly friendly.

Yeah. The invocation of Article 5 for Afghanistan showed a mixed response from the various NATO nations in what support they would provide.

Same reason I don’t do my own car maintenance, I’d rather spend my time and energy doing something else.

Lemmy is nowhere near close to diverting developer resources to that.

The market is to optimize for max human eyesight, which is a horizontal aspect ratio. For edge cases, a monitor can be converted to a vertical aspect ratio easily.

There really isn’t a large market to go square. If anything, monitors have gotten wider over time.

Sister wanted to get a job doing art and ended up getting an offer to work as an illustrator for a publishing company. One of her parents was all in in this. The other parent asked me to look out over to see if it was real or not. Turns out it was a scam I found out from 5 minutes of web searching. I had to be the one to break the news and the parent who was all in on the idea didn’t seem fazed that this was likely a scam since “there was a chance it was real”.

Nothing was signed, but I had to take the hit of standing in the way of the sister’s success.

Russia is looking to reestablish its Soviet borders, with a focus on Europe. Belarus is a Russian puppet, but Ukraine can go either way and Ukrainian territory is strategically important to Russia. Beyond that, Russia would probably want to bring in the Baltic nations as well, which is probably what intelligence agencies refer to as Russia wanting to attack Europe.

Beyond reforming the old empire, Russia wants to establish a greater sphere of influence in Europe and weaken potential rivals. A united EU is a threat in that can provide a unified response to Russian expansion.
